We have often seen justice repre-
sented as blind-folded female, but
the damsel who has charge of the
scales at Boise City, should consult
an ophthalmist, at once. The
quality of her mercy is not very
well strained, and droppeth like a
gentle ton meteor upon the victim
below Last week, at Boise City,
Peter Waldo, charged with the lar
ceny Of SO from a teamstcr, got
eight years in the territorial peni-
tertiary at hard labor; and Thos.
Murry, who attempted to murder
his wife by shooting her, got twenty
days in the county Jail and 800
fine. Substract the wife from $40,
then divide twenty days by eight
years, and--we give it up.
Sol. Newcomer, who plead guilty
to the charge of embezzling govern
ment funds while postmaster at
Rocky, Bar, was last Monday sem
fenced to the territorial prison for
six months and fined S3.429.8S.

THE MOON AND WEATHER,

During long storm, persons who
are well versed in weather lore are
often heard to console themselves
with the prediction that there will
be change of weather when the
moon changes. Nasmyth and Car
penter characterize as popular err
ror, in its most absurd form, this
belief that the gtadual turning Of
the moons face toward and away
from the sun could, at certain
points, upset the existing condition
of our atmosphere, generate clouds
and pour down rains. In England
(and the same may be said Of
America) the weather changes
about every three days, and there
is a change of the moon every seven
days, so that many condolences
must occur. Those who believe
that "the moon rules the weather
always credit such condolences to
lunar influence. But the theory is
untcnable unless it applies to every
case, and unless the same effect is
always produced by the same cause.
To suppose that q change of the
moon will turn dry weather to wet
Or wet to dry indiscriminately is
the merest childishness, and con-
trary to all meteorological records.

The Caldwell TRIBUNE gives a
long and fattering account of the
fair and stock show at that place
last week. Every department
seems to have been well represent
ed. This speaks well for the en-
terprise of Caldwell people, and we
are glad to know that the farmers
and stock raisers responded SO well.

BAKER CITY (oR. DEMOCRAT.

Sunday evening last at the Can
yon City stage, on its. way to Ba-
ker, was nearing the crossing ol
Union Greek, about three miles
west of Auburn, two masked men
made their appearance from the
brush on the side of the road, and
without parleying took aim at the
driver and passengers with a doub-
lie barrel shot gun and revolver
and commanded halt. The re-
quest was Immediately complied
with. One of the robbers relieved
the passengers of their purses and
watches, took three mail pouches
from the boot of the stage, and
commanded the driver to drive on.
The last command WAS complied
with most willingly. On board the
stage were three persons besides
the driver. One Of the passengers
gave up $11S in money and $3.50
gold watch. The others had but
little to loose, possibly $50 or $40
and silver watch belonging to the
driver. What amount of money
and valuables the mail bags con-
tanned, is not as yet known, but it
is supposed that there was between
two and three thousand dollars.
At the present time no express mat
ter is carried over the route, conse-
quently all money is sent through |
the mail. The scene of Sundays |
robbery is in exactly the same
place that the same stage was rob
bed about oneoyear ago, the rob-
oers securing about $1,000 booty,
md overlooking a purse containing
Il 900 that was in the express box.
As soon as Sheriff Hinshaw got
vord of the robbery, he dispatched
posse to the scene of action, with
Instructions to follow up and cap
ure the outlaws if possible. Up to
he present time it is not known
With what success they have met,
'ut is hoped that they will make
speedy capture. The mail sacks
ave been found within short dis
ance of where the robbery took
lace, the bottoms of the sacks cut
ut, but not letter or paper left
ehind. Where the robbery took
lace is in the mountains, rough in
thickly covered with
mber and grass, and a most diff
ult part of the country in which
, track or find bold outlaw, fully
ent on avoiding capture.

THE ELLIS MEMORIAL.

The Boston Post, in review of this
work, says:
1t is no disparagement upon the devout and
cultivated clergymen of any religious denom-
nation to say that DR.. Sumner Ellis was in no
proper sense inferior to the best of them In
the sterling qualities that go to make a sue.
cessful preacher and pastor he was not ex-
celled. By nature and culture he was quail
fed for his work. To say that he adorned his
profession does not express the whole truth
He glorified it. Not in the slightest degree
sensational, never resorting to trickery, en-
tirely free from cant and rant, but mild affec.
tionate and evidently in love with nature, art
and all that is good in humanity, his public
teachings were always effective Whoever
came in contact with Sumner Ellis felt an
influence that was elevating and transform
ing. This influence was not only experienced
while listening to bis sermons, but in his per-
sonal presence as well, whether on the street,
in social life or at the literary club. The Rev.
DIR. Thomas, of Chicago, who knew him init
mately, lovingly says:
, I never knew a better man. There was not a
flaw nor speck in his noble and transparent
soul. Gentle, unobtrusve, kind and helpful,
he was loved by all. His fine culture deep
piety and great ana generous love for man as
final triumph of good over evil, made his
ministry and his life blessing to any church
and community.
Many years of his ministry were spent in
Boston and the neighboring cities of Salem
and Lynn. And although several of his later
years were given TO professional labors in
Chicago and other Western cities, yet it is per.
haps, here in Boston that he was most init.
matelY known. 1t was here at the age of
twenty three years, as junior pastor of the
Hanover street church, a colleague of the
venerable Sebastian Streeter, he began his
ministry, after a special course of study with
Rev DR.. Ballou. the 1rst president of Tufts
College. Notwithstanding that his pulpit
labors, both in Boston and Salem, were accepts
able, he felt the need of more thorough prep
aration for pulpit and literary work and so he
resigned the Salem pastOrate to devote two
years of close study at Harvard College. Here
his biographer informs us, he devoted eonsid-
cradle attention TO 1.-The German schools Of

THE MARKETS. - Chicago, Mon
day afternoon, April IS.l-The leading
produce markets were slow, except wheat,
which attracted great deal OF attention.
The weather was raw, but the expected
rain did not come here, though the farms
of the West and Southwest appear to
have been literally wetted within the
last day or two; and the effect of it was
seen in the markets for the cereals. The
average feeling was one Of weakness, both
in grain and provisions.
Provisions Pork was nominal, at $780,
so for May or June and $l6.50@170O for
newly packed to consumers. Lard open
ed unchanged, at $745 for June, sold to
S73715, reacted to S745, and closed at
$40, with May at barely loo discount.
Rios opened &c lower, at $3.50 for June,
advanced to So 35, and weakened to S.
25 asked at the close, with May about
1870 discount.
Flour-Was very quiet, the sales re-
ported being limited to $50 bbls, all on
private terms. The market was neglect
ed, shippers being discouraged by the
break in wheat.
Wheat-Was active at much lower
range of prices. The British markets
were called firm, with quotations tending
upward in Liverpool, but the news of an
extensive rainfall in the wheat fields of
the West was the signal for heavy selling.
May opened &c lower, at sac, declined
to S215c, with rumors of selling at o2c,
improved to $3.50, and closed to S234c
bid, with June and July at about | 58c
discount. September old at 80@914c
and December at S334 @S454c. Cash lots
of No spring in store sold at ol58c for
receipts dated this week. Free on board
lots sold at 73@75c for No 3 and 6O@65c
for No. 4. Total cash sales, 16 cars.
Winter Wheat Sold to the extent of
. cars at 8156c for No. 2 red in store and
$40 for no grade free on board.
Corn-was rather slow, and sold lower.
1t was weak early in sympathy with wheat
and turned steadier ON a reported, de-
crease in the visible supply. May open
ed 1Sc lower, at SOC, and sold at the split
above that figure, declined to $500 bid,
and closed at 3S24c. September sold at
43@434c. Sample lots were quiet and
averaged easier, those on the Burlington
tracks being the weakest because of the
difficulty of getting them into the store.
Cash lots in store and to go there sold at
3715@384c for No 2 yellow and $3.50
3818c for No 2, with 3711lc bid for No. 3
yellow and 3614c bid for No. 3. Free on
board lots sold at 384@3914c for No 2
yellow, 3S15c for No with 373se for No.
3 and 37@3719c for No. A. Total cash
sales 140 cars and 20,500 bu.

A Husbands Testimony.

My wife was troubled for years with
blotches, moth patches and pimples on
her face, which nearly annoyed the life
out of her. She spent many dollars on
the thousand infallible ~ cures, with
nothing but injurious effects. A lady
friend, of Syracuse, N. Y, who had had
similar experience and had been cured
with Hop Bitters, induced her to try it.
One bottle has made her face as smooth,
fair and soft as a cbild's, and given her
such health that it seems almost a miracle,

grateful to you to know that in this world
of adulterated medicines there is one
compound that proves and does all it
advertises to do, and more. Four years

least excitement would make me shake
like the ague. Last Msy / was induced
to try Hop Bitters. used one bottle
but did not see any change; another did
SO change my nerves that they are now
as steady as they ever were. l used to
take both bands to write, but now my
good right hand writes this. Now, If

CoshOcton Station, ". Y, Dec. %, 'S4.
GFNTs:-A number of people had been
ueing your BitteIs here and with marked
effect. In fact, one case, lady of over
seventy years, had been sick for years,
and for the past ten years 1 have known
her she has not been able to be around
half the time. About six months ago she
got SO feeble she was helpless. Her old
remedies, or physicians, be ing of no avail,
sent to Deposit, forty-fve miles, and
got bottle of Hop Bitters. 1t had such
a very beneficial effect on her that one
bottle improved her SO she was able to
dress herself and walk about the house.
When she bad taken the second bottle
she was able to take care of her own room
and walk out to her neighbours and has
improved all the time since. My wife
and children also have derived great ben
eft from their use.
